Audiobook Review: Secrets Drenched in Blood

 

“If you’re a good girl tonight, maybe I’ll treat you like a bad one later.”

As a human living in the isolated supernatural town of Midnight Harbor, there’s only two choices for me: leave Midnight or pledge my allegiance to one of the supernatural Houses.

It’s expected I’ll follow my family lineage and pledge myself to the Locke Vampire House. But with my pledging day approaching, I’m determined to live my own life and leave Midnight.

I would have made good on that promise if it wasn’t for my vampire neighbor, Bran Duval, black sheep of the powerful Duval House.

Bran reveals that my sister has secretly asked Duval House to bid on me breaking all of Midnight’s tradition. Bran doesn’t know the reason but I think he’s just as curious as I am because we’re soon teaming up to uncover the secrets.

But the longer I’m with Bran, the less control I seem to have over my own desires. Especially when Bran is commanding me in the dark, igniting something in me I didn’t even know I had.

And when Bran finally sinks his fangs into me, everything about my life comes into question.

Because my blood? It isn’t human.

My Review

I really like that the complete collection of this series is available in one audiobook. This allowed me to just keep listening and not lose momentum with the series as one book ended and the next one began. What really did make the audiobook enjoyable are the two narrators, Amy and Jim. I thought they both did really good jobs of voicing the characters. This included Amy voicing male characters. 


I do like Jessie and Bran together. Although, I do have to admit that it took me a bit warmer to warm up to Jessie than Bran. Instantly, I liked Bran as soon as I met him. This is because he has a cocky side to him. I am a sucker for cocky, handsome men, even vampire men. 


I became more invested in Bran, Jessie, and this world as the stories progressed. This omnibus is a romantasy. So the story is more of the focal point with touches of spice here and there. If you like strong stories and engaging characters, where the MMC sinks he teeth into you. you will want to turn up the volume on this audiobook.
